Does chaos breed creativity? For some, yes; for others (those who need order…like myself), no! The weekly photo challenge shows great examples of Chaos at work (or play)!
While on vacation in La Ventana, Baja, Mexico last January, a friend of a friend pulled up in his highly decorated “carcancha” (jalopy).
When I came across this photo, I laughed out loud because of how it looks, but also because it simply made me happy to see this again! It reminded me of how much fun we had on this trip south! I’m including this post with Trent’s World Blog Weekly Smile.
What chaotic, creative things bring a smile to your face? Let me know in the comments!
It does make you smile

Do they just drive it around, or is it for parades. Really wild.

This is in the “wild west” of Baja Mexico. They do just drive it around.

That car is wild! This summer I saw a vintage “low rider” from the early 70s. Maybe they still exist in California, but you don’t see them on the east coast very often. It was actually a gorgeous car (unlike the car in your picture π ).

He can get away with driving it in La Ventana, Baja. Can’t drive this on US streets π

My blog was on WP, then went to self-hosted, then after some issues, I came back to dot com. Much better. Thanks for re-following, I appreciate it!

I believe I saw others posts on your weekly smile link-up! I hope to keep up with that more often. See? I’m even smiling just thinking of it π We definitely need more positivism in the world right now!

Typically I get about 7 people join each week. This week is a little low, though I’ve had people post something at the last minute. I hope you are able to join in! Watching/reading the news, yes, we really need a lot more positivism!

It’s probably too weighed down. And those roads in Mexico are too pot-holed to let you drive fast π

Maybe it takes you forward to the past then? π Whatever, I love it, Terri.

I had a couple other shots of it. The owner is a windsurfer who retired to Baja. He’s living the dream, LOL!

Reminds me of Tucson in the ’70’s and the rides we see going by…mostly raised suspensions and outrageous paint jobs. Thanks Terri
